Several years ago, I was an avid reader. I loved to read because it felt like a movie going on in my head. I could imagine the characters with my own imagination. I could take a break from the things of life. With my college work load, I have neglected books. Now I realize that I really need to get back into reading. I spend way too much time on my phone. So I am excited to start reading again. These 4 books are some of the books I want to read ASAP!

1. "Girl, Wash Your Face" by Rachel Hollis

When I first heard of this book, I was so confused by the title. It is so random. However, I now follow Rachel Hollis on Instagram which made me even more intrigued with her book. This book is meant to debunk the lies we tell ourselves every day. Rachel seems like a really cool person. I know that her book is going to be truthful and transparent while being extremely funny.

2. "Gmorning, Gnight: Little Pep Talks for Me and You" by Lin-Manuel Miranda 

If you know me, you know I love Lin. He tweets daily with words of encouragement in the morning and at night. He decided to put some of these tweets into book form so that people can read them whenever they need them. I love inspirational words and quotes, so this book is right up my alley. It is also illustrated in the cutest way possible.

3. "You are a Bad***" by Jen Sincero 

I have wondered about this book for a while now. I have never had enough confidence and security in myself. I've gotten better over the years, but I'm hoping that reading this book would help me out. I've seen several people post about it lately, and I'm ready to read it!

4. "Uninvited: Living Loved When You Feel Less Than, Left Out, and Lonely" by Lysa TerKeurst 

This, I believe, is more of a devotional. I have used the same devotional for over a year; I never really clicked with it. I am on the hunt for a great book that will help bring me closer to God. I easily feel left out, so once I read the title of this book, I knew it would be perfect for me. I have heard a lot about Lysa Terkeurst, and I am excited to hear what she has to say!

I hope that reading this gave you some suggestions for the next time you go to the book store. I am excited to cross all these books off of my list.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
